In Texas military uniform, American president George Bush, with his father. The father, as a US congressman in 1964 was a lesser known Texan than US president and ‘Dixiecrat‘ Lyndon Baines Johnson. He stood for racial inequality (Mexicans, Native Americans and Africans) and state’s rights over federal power and the family’s international and domestic oil Fortunes.
By 1988, George H. Bush was president and had given up his job as CIA chief. This was the same year that the US government finally had ratified and signed the United Nations Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment.
There is often the idea that we are indestructible.
This point of departure is many times emblematic of youth.
Naturally, a desire to free oneself from childhood appeals to the teenager. Accordingly, the teen wants to hurry towards adulthood. In the rush to reach maturity, as pleasant or disturbing as it is, we can learn much.
Or we can take on thoughts and actions - let’s call this behavior-that can bring a lifetime of paybacks. Success means satisfying prosperity in health, a balance in economics and ability to handle the sure to be faced ups and downs of relating to other people. Pushing ahead into self interested supremacy almost always can be guided by or halted by older persons.
In the event that the notion of being super dominant taking over the young mind, the fantasy will sooner or later be punctured.
Quite an explosion will be heard and felt by all who are affected by the petty one.
